The brownies turned out really good, if a little too rich for my taste. The frosting was excellent. I love the idea of peanut butter frosting! Overall, I would definitely recommend this recipe.

Man oh man are these tasty! I made them for a holiday party last year and loved them so much, I ended up making them a couple more times throughout the season. I even used the frosting recipe for other chocolately treats like cake and cookies. These brownies were easy to make and everyone really liked them.
